True. 

But if I notice that I "don't get" what the author seems to be saying, the amount of time and efforts I'm likely to spend trying to comprehend that post is directly proportional to the respect I already have for this author. So, Queen of Sheba's emails are much likelier to end up in a digital trashcan, than those from somebody "known". 

Just sayin'  ;-)
